Contentful vs OpenText TeamSite

• Clean, modern interface (not clunky and outdated, like WordPress)
• High degree of flexibility (I can structure data any way my clients need)
• Enables headless frontend (i.e. I can build any frontend I want without having to change my CMS)

• It's a very easy-to-use tool that enables my organization to manage and publish digital content easily in a cost-effective way.
• I like how it delivers a personalized omnichannel digital experience through an intuitive and flexible enterprise web content management system.
• I like the robust capabilities that enhance our work, like site design, content authoring, editing, and personalization.

• The new Contentful "branches" feature looked promising (it appears to mirror a git-like repository) but it requires the CLI, which isn't necessarily practical for teams that aren't current CLI users. It would be nice if the management of this feature were available via the UI (without that it causes more confusion than anything).
• The Contentful data modeling method makes for a bit of an awkward SDK developer experience in some strongly typed languages like Java. Most things that you might need can be accomplished, but it feels like the experience could be smoother.
• It would be nice if there were a way to migrate data between spaces (e.g. from your staging space to production).

• Draconian licensing methods; license is tied to IP address of one of the network interfaces so this product is incompatible with cloud deployment.
• Very poor documentation - we've never been able to get to the bottom of an issue in a "self service" manner by using the available support documentation. We're always at the mercy of the sub-par helpdesk.
• Doesn't lend itself to automation - configuration is some obscure format that is impossible to automate

• Positive: faster changes and new associates can easily navigate without prior training/knowledge of CMS to make content updates
• Negative: Our website manager/provider can keep certain abilities (like changing specific images) so they can charge a fee for making the change
